1. A vehicle comprising:
a first transceiver configured to provide wireless communications between the vehicle and at least a network;
a second transceiver configured to provide wireless communications between the vehicle and at least the network;
at least one processor communicatively coupled to the first transceiver and the second transceiver; and
at least one memory storing instructions thereon that, when executed by the at least one processor, result in operations comprising:
receiving route information representing a route to be traveled by the vehicle;
determining based on a prediction model and the route information, a first connectivity score of the first transceiver and a second connectivity score of the second transceiver, wherein the prediction model is trained to generate the first connectivity score and the second connectivity score using wireless communication characteristics associated with the first transceiver and the second transceiver;
comparing the first connectivity score against the second connectivity score;
selecting based on the first connectivity score being greater than the second connectivity score, the first transceiver for wirelessly connecting the vehicle along the route;
receiving from a localization system of the vehicle, a location information representing a current location of the vehicle;
determining using the location information, a current second connectivity score of the second transceiver;
comparing the current second connectivity score against the first connectivity score; and
connecting based on the comparing the current second connectivity score against the first connectivity score, the vehicle to the first transceiver or the second transceiver for performing wireless communications.
